Nepal’s unique geographical features, frequent political disturbances, strikes, a limited and complicated road network, frequent road breakdowns, government interventions as well as a volatile international oil market make the supply chain of Nepal Oil Corporation (NOC) rather unique. We analyze different risks in the NOC supply chain and discuss what can be done to find inventory strategies th...

Networks on Chip (NoCs) have been steadily investigated from reliability, efficiency, and performance perspectives.However, little effort has been directed towards the security of complex on-chip networks. These networks are prone to attacks similar to those perpetrated against large scale networks such as datacenters and the internet. If a single core within an NoC is compromised, it can be us...

Nowadays Network-on-Chips is used instead of System-on-Chips for better performance. This paper presents a new algorithm to find a shorter path, and shows that genetic algorithm is a potential technique for solving routing problem for mesh topology in on-chip-network.

While multi-processor system-on-chips (MPSOCs) with network-on-chip (NOC) interconnect are becoming increasingly common to meet the constant performance demand, it is due to communication delays in the NOC extremely complicated to ensure that software executes correctly. In this paper, we extend our architecture that non-intrusively observes global properties at run time using distributed monit...

Network-on-Chip (NoC) as a promising design approach for on-chip interconnect fabrics could overcome the energy as well as synchronization challenges of the conventional interconnects in the gigascale System-on-Chips (SoC). The advantages of communication performance of traditional wired NoC will no longer be continued by the future technology scaling. Packets that travel between distant nodes ...
